**DROUGHT WATCH**

The Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments has issued a regional Drought Watch. “Our region hasn’t seen extremely dry conditions like this in about two decades when local leaders and COG first established a drought response plan to support coordination and communication regionwide,” said Clark Mercer, COG Executive Director.

Residents and businesses are encouraged to practice wise water use by taking simple, voluntary steps to reduce water use and help protect the region’s water resources if dry conditions persist.
